Response shows Clinton doesn't care

What an amazing and caring secretary of state the United States of America currently has. While answering questions before a U.S. Senate committee, Secretary Clinton was asked about the al-Qaida terrorist attack that killed four brave American heroes. The secretary absolutely lost control and showed her true contempt for any and all Americans who serve their country.

Up until Thursday, Jan. 24, Clinton has done a fair job at showing respect for those in the foreign service. But when pressed about details of the attack and what exactly led to the attack, Clinton responded, "With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans." Clinton raised her voice and continued by stating, "Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk last night who decided to kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make?"

I believe it makes a great deal of difference to most Americans, especially family members of U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, foreign service information management officer Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods. It may not matter to you, but I can guarantee you it matters to most of us.

Also, you have yet to answer the question as to the truth behind the lie that the attack was in response to a video. I remember watching you as you stood beside the four flag-draped caskets and once again you mentioned the video. How dare you stand before the bodies of four fallen American heroes and repeat that lie?

So, madam secretary, on Jan. 24, before a U.S. Senate committee hearing, you had two choices; No. 1, you could have told the American people the truth about Benghazi or No. 2, you could continue with the Obama administration’s lies and talking points. It’s a shame Mrs. Clinton, you chose option No. 2. You put an exclamation point on your public legacy, but to quote you, madam secretary, "What difference at this point does it make?"
